H-D breaks new ground
Harley-Davidson recently began construction of its Milwaukee museum with a ground-breaking ceremony attended by enthusiasts plus past and present management.The company literally broke the ground with an 883R Sportster, ridden by dirt track racer Scott Parker.
"The Harley-Davidson Museum will showcase the unforgettable collection of motorcycles and historical items from our Company's vast archives," said Stacey Watson, Harley-Davidson Museum director. "But even more importantly, it will celebrate the history of the Company, the passion of the riders, and the stories of the employees, dealers, and suppliers. These varied and fascinating stories are woven into the fabric of Harley-Davidson, shaping the legend and setting the stage for a bright future."
Expected to open in 2008, the 130,000 square foot Museum development will feature exhibit space as well as a restaurant, cafe, retail shop, meeting space, special events facilities and the company's archives.
